zfs discuss - Nov 2009 - Adding drives to system - disk labels not consistent

I''m looking to increase the size of the pool uses. I''ve
installed 4 500Gb disks.

When I do a trial run of adding the drives to the pool, the follow is listed:

zpool add -n tank raidz c5t4d0 c5t5d0 c5t6d0 c5t7d0

would update ''tank'' to the following configuration:
   tank
       raidz1
         c5t0d0
         c5t1d0
         c5t2d0
         c5t3d0
      raidz1
         c5t4
         c5t5
         c5t6
         c5t7


Do I need to be concerned that the labels for the new disks (c5t4 to c5t7) do
not have the d0 suffix as per the original disks in this pool?  My goal is to
add the entire disk - not a portion thereof.

Thanks...

When using the -n switch the output is truncated i.e. the d0 is not printed.
When actually adding the drives, the operation is as expected -

Hi Stuart,

Which Solaris release are you seeing this behavior?

I would like reproduce it and file a bug, if necessary.

Thanks,

Cindy

Hi -

Using OpenSolaris 2008.11

Hope this is enough information.

I was able to reproduce this problem on the latest Nevada build:


# zpool create tank raidz c1t2d0 c1t3d0 c1t4d0
# zpool add -n tank raidz c1t5d0 c1t6d0 c1t7d0
would update ''tank'' to the following configuration:
         tank
           raidz1
             c1t2d0
             c1t3d0
             c1t4d0
           raidz1
             c1t5
             c1t6
             c1t7

I will file a low-priority bug since it is a -n display problem
only.

Thanks for reporting it.

Cindy

This may be a dup of 6881631.
